One of the issues in the recent election campaign was the future of the welfare state. A day-care parents scheme operating in the Southall area is under threat of closure as its funding from the local council has ceased. Should community projects of this nature rely on state support, or should the community step in and take over the responsibility?
SURINDER KOCHAR talks to ANILA CHADA, organiser of the scheme, and THE REV MANO RUMALSHAH, Chairman of Ealing Community Relations Council, about the effects the closure might have and the possible alternatives.
BALJINDER SINGH SANGHERA Will attempt to swim across the Channel in September. In a film report, he is seen training and preparing for this demanding venture, and he and his trainer TOM mcneill talk about the difficulties and obstacles they have encountered.
The round-up of news and events from the communities is followed by a Bengali folk song performed by ASGHAR ALIM.

Guatemala - An Exercise in Faith General Efrain Rios Montt , President of Guatemala, is a man in trouble. Last year he swept to power in a military coup, and in this traditionally Roman Catholic country energetically promoted his brand of charismatic evangelism.
This year Pope John Paul II was officially received with ill-disguised hostility: days before his arrival, six guerrillas were executed despite a papal plea for clemency. Now the Army's highest-ranking General has been sacked for claiming that religious sectarianism at the highest levels of government is causing ' unnecessary offence ' to the Catholic population.
As the battle for the soul of Guatemala develops, David Jessel examines the nature of the evangelical movement and the Catholic opposition, and asks ' whose God is winning? '
